Pupils are instructed individually, and not in classes, so that students may enter at any time, and proceed in the ratio of their capacity aud assiduity.

A course can be completed In from six to ten weeks. The Principal will tuke pleasure in doing everything in nis power to advance bis students, and moke them thorough and accomplished accountants ; and his extensive acquaintance with the business community will generally enable him to procure situations for those desirous of obtaining them.

From the Worcester igls. Hay Basket Extraordinary. 'Twas a chilly eve on the first of May, Many long years ago ; And the moon shone bright with her pale col l light, On the silent earth below, When a bachelor sat by his cheerless stove. Dreaming the hours away ; Thinking, perhaps, of some early love, When his life was happy and gay. And there he sat in Ills easy chair, And he heeded not the time, Till the dock, which stood in a corner near. Chimed out the hour of nine, When violently the doorbell rang. Re-echoing through the hall, And forth from his chair the bachelor sprang, To answer the sudden call. He opened the door with a cautious air ; " Good evening," he gallantly said. He looked again ; no one was there, The Intruders all had fled ; But there, on the step, was a basket laid, Of large and portentous siic ; " Ah, 'tis something nice," he mentally snid, As lie took up the weighty priic. And he found, indeed, it was quite a lift, As he raised it up in a chair, Thinking it was a splendid gift From aoinc enamoured fair. And eager he was to view the prize, Which might be there enrolled ; But he stopped for n pair of brinht Hue eyes Peeped out from the soft white fold. Then he sank aback, half in despair, And raised his wondering eye, When, out from the depths of the basket, there Cnme forth a wailing cry. So he rang the bell for a servant-maid, Who came and took up the child ; And then, In flannel and lace arrayed, A lovely infant smiled. Long time has passed, and the bachelor now, Is rending Life's last page ; And the grey locks rest on his furrowed brow, And his eyes arc dimmed with ago. But though so many years have gone, Since that May day gift did come, Still do those bright blue eyes shine on, The light of tho bachelor's home. Marlboro', May, 1854. Constaxui. Alexander UaruiKon on the Powers of tbe Government. It Las often been intimated by politicians not familiar with the early history of the country, that Gen. Alexander Hamilton was an advocate of a Ftrong Government, and favored the idea of a President for life. Thin imputation is occasionally repented with an air of confidence which gives it credence with the multitude. But the charge was controverted in a positive manner more than fifty years ago by the distinguished Statesman himself. A letter to Timothv Pickering, first published in 1812, is of sufficient interest to be reproduced at this time : New York, Sept. 16, 1803, My Dear Sir : I will make noaDolotrv for mv delay in answering your inquiry some time since made, because 1 could oiler none which would satisfy mvself. I nrav rnn onlv tn lmlinvo tlmt it proceeded from anything rather from want of respect or regnru. 1 shall now comply with your request. TUo highest-toned propositions which I made in the Convention, were for a President. SenntP and Judges during good behavior ; a House of ivupreseiininves ior ujree years, 'lnougn I would have enlarged the legislative power of the General Government, yet I never contemplated tho abolition of the State Governments : but, on the contrary, they were in some particulars, constituent parts of my plan. This plan was. in my conception, conformable with the strict theory of a Government purely republican ; the essential criteria of which are. ll-A Jl.. ! ! I -. 1. .. ' win iue priiicipni organs oi ine executive and legislative departments be elected by the peo ple, anu nom me oiuccs by a responsible and temporary or defeasible nature. A vote was taken on the proposition respecting the executive. Five States were in favor of it among these Virginia ; and though, from the manner of votiug by delegations, individuals were not distinguished, it was morally certain from the known situation of tho Virginia members (six in number, two of them, Mason and Randolph, professinz noDular doctrines. that Madison must hnve concurred in the vote of Virginia. Thus, if I sinned against republican ism, Air. Aituuson is not less guilty. I may truly, then, fay that I never proposed cuuer a i restuent or senate ior lite; and that neither recommended nor meditated the annihl lation of the State Governments. And I may ndd that, in a course of the discussions in the Convention, neither the proposition 'thrown out for debate, nor even those who voted in the earlier stages of deliberation, were uuiiHiuvieu us cviuuuues oi a acunuive opinion in the proposer or voter. It appeared to be in some sort understood that, with a view to free investigation, experimental pronositions mitrht be made, which were to be received merely as suggestions for consideration. Accordingly, it is a fact that my final opinion was asainst an Executive during good behavior, on account of the increased danger to the public tranquillity incident to the election,of a magistrate of bis degree or permanency, ln the plan of a Constitution which I drew up while the Contention was sitting, aud which 1 communicated to Mr. Madison about tho close of it, perhaps a day or two after, the office of President has no longer duration than for three years. This plan was predicated upon these bases : 1. That the political principles of the people of mis country wouia enaure nothing but a Republican Government. 2. That in the actual situation of the country it was itself right and proper that tho republican theory should have a full and fair trial. 3. That to such a trial it was essential that the Government should be so constructed as to give it all the energy and the stability reconcilcable with tho priuciDlcs of that theory. These were the genuine sentiments of my neon, ana upon them 1 then acted. I sincerely hope that it may not hereafter be discovered that, through want of sufficient attention to the last idea, the experiment of Republican Government, even in this country, has not been as' complete, as satisfactory and as do- ctsive as couia uo wisneu. Very truly, dear sir, your friend and servant. A. HAMILTON. Timothy Pickering, Esq. A Fish Stoiiy. Four clergymen, a Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, and Roman Catholic, mot by agreement to dine on fish. Soon ns grace was said tho Catholic rose, armed with knife and fork, nnd taking about one-third of the fish, comprehending the head, removed it to his plate, exclaiming as he sat down, with greatself-salis-fabtion, " Papa est caput ccclcsiiu," (the Pope is the head of the Church.) Immediately the Methodist minister arose, and helping himself to about one-third embracing the tail, seated himself, exclaiming, " Finis ooronat opus," (tho end crowns the work,) The Presbyterian now thought it was time for him to move, and taking the remainder of the fish to his plate, exclaiming, " In media est Veritas," (truth lies between the two extremes.) Our Baptist brother had nothing before him but an empty pinto and the prospect of a slim dinner, and snatching up tho bowl of drawn (melted) butler, ho dashed it over thoin all, exclaiming, " Ego bnptiao vas." (I bnnlue you all,) An Honest Boy. A younir lad named Gro. V. Armitagc found on the street a check nn a bnnking house in this city, calling for upwards of utieeu iiiinureu uuiiars. -i no ooy immediately sought out, first tho endorser and afterwards the owner of the check, and was rewarded liberally by the latter for his honesty. The owner of tha draft was our fellow QitUen, John O'FaUon, Ew. Who b the Honorable Member! A writer in the San Francisco Golden Era, gives the history of a certain wooden building, near the corner of Washington and Stockton streets, built In 1849, and makes the following startling developments about its former proprietor:As we before said, the individual who built that house was by profession a gambler, by the name of H . His father was a member of the Massachusetts Legislature for many years, and in 1846 removed to Natchez, at the request of a number of relatives who resided near that city. At this tune young II was eighteen vears of age, and an only child. Here, keeeping the company of the reckless and dissipated charac ters ior wnicn JNatcuez was at that time notorious, he plunged into every species of vice, and soon became irrevocably wedded to gaming. llis lather, upon learning the danger which threatened him iu the city, sent him to live with an uncle, who resided a few miles in the country, thnt he might not be subject to the temptations that surrounded him in the city, hoping by so doing to wean him from the life of dissi pation and vice into which he was fast verging. He remained in his uncle's family, where he was treated with the affection of a son for six months, when dishonoring his cousin, the only daughter of his uncle, he left for New Orleans, and iu six months from the time he landed there, he was a confirmed gambler. Ilis cousin Lucy, whom he had so deeply wronged, shortly after became a mother, which was a severe blow to her parents, as well as the father of young H . The child did not live, however, and Lucy unable to remain louger iu the presence of her parents, whom she had rendered forever heartbroken, at the desire of young II , left the home of her childhood, and joined him in New Orleans. Here they remained until the Spring of 1849, by which time H had become a proficient nt gambling. He now concluded to try his fortune in California, and after much persuasion on the part of Lucy, he at length assented to her accompanying him. They arrived at San Francisco in May of that year, and turning his attention to his profession, we unu young ii , at the end or three months, with means sufficient to build the house which we have mentioned. Into this house he removed Lucy, where for some time they lived together, with as much happiness as their social condition would admit. But fortune, which had thus far been favorable, changing, he lost his monev more rnpiuiy man ne nau won it ; and by degrees he lost every dollar, his house at length being taken to pay a gambling debt. He became desperate and began to nbuse and ill-treat his already wretched cousin and mistress, not knowing on whom else to vent his rage in his misfortunes ; and in a drunken hour he offered to sell her for a small sum of readv cash to a gambling companion. Agninst such an act she at first pleaded with tearful eyes ; but finding that unavailing, she at length indignantly refused, whereupon he struck her to the floor with a stick of wood, where he left her for dead ; then locking the door, he fled to the mines. The blow did not kill her, and she recovered, finding herself without money, without friends, and without a home. Lucy is now living on Washington street, leading a life of infamy, forced upon her by the villany of a "relative. The rose of health and happiness has faded from her cheek, not a ray of hope beams iu her eye, and sickening despair sits upon that face which once bloomed with Joyful innocence. ,u, And where is hcv destroyer I We will toll yvl2 Finding that gambling did not pay, he turned his attention to politics, and it now a member of the California Legislature. The nbove is not fancy, but a true sketch, as we stand ready to prove. Markyinq the Peace. At the last dates from Utah, Walker, the Indian chief, was continuing his depredations upon emigrants and the Mormon settlements. The subject being before one of the conference meetings of the Mormons, Elder Smith intimated that he could settle the difficulties with tbe Indians, provided some one of the sisters hod a taste for wigwam life. He said : " I know men are careless, women are careless ; and if there Is not greater care taken, women will be carried away prisoners, and their ' children will be murdered if they wander off carelessly and without protection. I tell you, in a country like this, where women are scarce and hard to get, we have great need to take care of them. Walker himself has teased me for a white wife ; and if any of tho sisters will marry him, I believe I can close the war forthwith. I am certain that unless men can take better care of their women, Walker may supply himself on a liberal scale, and without closinir the war either. In conclusion, I will say, if any lady wishes to be Mrs. Walker, if she will report herself to me, I will agree to negotiate the match." Matrimonial. The fact is revealed by the late British Census (of 1851) that of 290,000 women under the age of 45, in one of the ten divisions, only 170,000 were wives the 120,000 remaiu-ing being widows or spinsters ; and from 1841 to 1851, only ten children were born to every 68 women under 45 years. Of G7,C09 households, 41,916 only were families under husbands and wives, 10,854 were under widows or widowers and 14,399 were under spinsters or bachelors. English writers charge these most unpleasantly suggestive facts to the restrictions on food and commerce that have existed. With their removal it is presumed that a new order of things has been commenced ; and they point to the returns for tho last two or three years to evidence the assertions that the number of marriages now increases every quarter. Rjlse Pahsxips. The parsnip can be raised much more easily than the carrot, and is quite equal to it for feeding horses, cattle or swine. It has advantages over some other crops, by its hardness to endure our most severe winters. A deep, ricle, aud rather moist soil is preferable, but they succeed well in good dry soil. We have grown them iu marsh muck over two feet long and proportionately large. They may be sown late iu the fall or very early In the spring. Never sow them when the soil is dry and hot; it is better to wait for rnin. Michigan Farmer. There is being exhibited in our city, a negro woman, who is turning white. She is of the same complexion ns any white person, with the exception of a black spot on the end of her nose, and a few small spots on her knuckles. There is no doubt but she is a genuine negro: she says any way she is of the pure blood. She ia seventy-five vears old, and was raised by John Randolph, in Charlotte County, Virginia. Her home is in St. Louis, where slio is well known. Chicago Press. 'An artist of Sheffield, England," has discovered that soap is an excellent substitute for wood in engraving. A drawing may be executed with a hard point on a smooth piece of soap, almost as readily, as freely, and iu as short a time, as an ordinary drawing with a lead pencil. Every touch tints produced is clear, sharp, and well defined. When the drawing is finished, a cast may be taken from the surface in plaster ; or, better still, by prossiug the soap firmly Into heated gutta-percha. In gutta-percha soveral impressions may bo taken without injuring the soap, go as to admit of " proofs " being taken, and corrections made a very valuable and practical quality in soap. " No one's Exemy bdt his Ows." " No one's enemy but his own " happens generally to be tho enemy of everybody with whom he is in relation. " No one's enemy but his own " runs rapidly through his means, calls in a friendly way on his friends for bonds, bail and security, Involves his nearest kin, leaves his wife a beg-gar, quarters his orphans upon the public, and, after having enjoyed himself to his last guinea, entails a life of dependency on bis progeny, and dies in the odor of thnt ill understood reputation of harmless folly, which is more injurious to so- cioty than some positive crimes.

Pupils are instructed individually, and not in classes, so that students may enter at any time, and proceed in the ratio of their capacity aud assiduity.

A course can be completed In from six to ten weeks. The Principal will tuke pleasure in doing everything in nis power to advance bis students, and moke them thorough and accomplished accountants ; and his extensive acquaintance with the business community will generally enable him to procure situations for those desirous of obtaining them.

From the Worcester igls. Hay Basket Extraordinary. 'Twas a chilly eve on the first of May, Many long years ago ; And the moon shone bright with her pale col l light, On the silent earth below, When a bachelor sat by his cheerless stove. Dreaming the hours away ; Thinking, perhaps, of some early love, When his life was happy and gay. And there he sat in Ills easy chair, And he heeded not the time, Till the dock, which stood in a corner near. Chimed out the hour of nine, When violently the doorbell rang. Re-echoing through the hall, And forth from his chair the bachelor sprang, To answer the sudden call. He opened the door with a cautious air ; " Good evening," he gallantly said. He looked again ; no one was there, The Intruders all had fled ; But there, on the step, was a basket laid, Of large and portentous siic ; " Ah, 'tis something nice," he mentally snid, As lie took up the weighty priic. And he found, indeed, it was quite a lift, As he raised it up in a chair, Thinking it was a splendid gift From aoinc enamoured fair. And eager he was to view the prize, Which might be there enrolled ; But he stopped for n pair of brinht Hue eyes Peeped out from the soft white fold. Then he sank aback, half in despair, And raised his wondering eye, When, out from the depths of the basket, there Cnme forth a wailing cry. So he rang the bell for a servant-maid, Who came and took up the child ; And then, In flannel and lace arrayed, A lovely infant smiled. Long time has passed, and the bachelor now, Is rending Life's last page ; And the grey locks rest on his furrowed brow, And his eyes arc dimmed with ago. But though so many years have gone, Since that May day gift did come, Still do those bright blue eyes shine on, The light of tho bachelor's home. Marlboro', May, 1854. Constaxui. Alexander UaruiKon on the Powers of tbe Government. It Las often been intimated by politicians not familiar with the early history of the country, that Gen. Alexander Hamilton was an advocate of a Ftrong Government, and favored the idea of a President for life. Thin imputation is occasionally repented with an air of confidence which gives it credence with the multitude. But the charge was controverted in a positive manner more than fifty years ago by the distinguished Statesman himself. A letter to Timothv Pickering, first published in 1812, is of sufficient interest to be reproduced at this time : New York, Sept. 16, 1803, My Dear Sir : I will make noaDolotrv for mv delay in answering your inquiry some time since made, because 1 could oiler none which would satisfy mvself. I nrav rnn onlv tn lmlinvo tlmt it proceeded from anything rather from want of respect or regnru. 1 shall now comply with your request. TUo highest-toned propositions which I made in the Convention, were for a President. SenntP and Judges during good behavior ; a House of ivupreseiininves ior ujree years, 'lnougn I would have enlarged the legislative power of the General Government, yet I never contemplated tho abolition of the State Governments : but, on the contrary, they were in some particulars, constituent parts of my plan. This plan was. in my conception, conformable with the strict theory of a Government purely republican ; the essential criteria of which are. ll-A Jl.. ! ! I -. 1. .. ' win iue priiicipni organs oi ine executive and legislative departments be elected by the peo ple, anu nom me oiuccs by a responsible and temporary or defeasible nature. A vote was taken on the proposition respecting the executive. Five States were in favor of it among these Virginia ; and though, from the manner of votiug by delegations, individuals were not distinguished, it was morally certain from the known situation of tho Virginia members (six in number, two of them, Mason and Randolph, professinz noDular doctrines. that Madison must hnve concurred in the vote of Virginia. Thus, if I sinned against republican ism, Air. Aituuson is not less guilty. I may truly, then, fay that I never proposed cuuer a i restuent or senate ior lite; and that neither recommended nor meditated the annihl lation of the State Governments. And I may ndd that, in a course of the discussions in the Convention, neither the proposition 'thrown out for debate, nor even those who voted in the earlier stages of deliberation, were uuiiHiuvieu us cviuuuues oi a acunuive opinion in the proposer or voter. It appeared to be in some sort understood that, with a view to free investigation, experimental pronositions mitrht be made, which were to be received merely as suggestions for consideration. Accordingly, it is a fact that my final opinion was asainst an Executive during good behavior, on account of the increased danger to the public tranquillity incident to the election,of a magistrate of bis degree or permanency, ln the plan of a Constitution which I drew up while the Contention was sitting, aud which 1 communicated to Mr. Madison about tho close of it, perhaps a day or two after, the office of President has no longer duration than for three years. This plan was predicated upon these bases : 1. That the political principles of the people of mis country wouia enaure nothing but a Republican Government. 2. That in the actual situation of the country it was itself right and proper that tho republican theory should have a full and fair trial. 3. That to such a trial it was essential that the Government should be so constructed as to give it all the energy and the stability reconcilcable with tho priuciDlcs of that theory. These were the genuine sentiments of my neon, ana upon them 1 then acted. I sincerely hope that it may not hereafter be discovered that, through want of sufficient attention to the last idea, the experiment of Republican Government, even in this country, has not been as' complete, as satisfactory and as do- ctsive as couia uo wisneu. Very truly, dear sir, your friend and servant. A. HAMILTON. Timothy Pickering, Esq. A Fish Stoiiy. Four clergymen, a Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, and Roman Catholic, mot by agreement to dine on fish. Soon ns grace was said tho Catholic rose, armed with knife and fork, nnd taking about one-third of the fish, comprehending the head, removed it to his plate, exclaiming as he sat down, with greatself-salis-fabtion, " Papa est caput ccclcsiiu," (the Pope is the head of the Church.) Immediately the Methodist minister arose, and helping himself to about one-third embracing the tail, seated himself, exclaiming, " Finis ooronat opus," (tho end crowns the work,) The Presbyterian now thought it was time for him to move, and taking the remainder of the fish to his plate, exclaiming, " In media est Veritas," (truth lies between the two extremes.) Our Baptist brother had nothing before him but an empty pinto and the prospect of a slim dinner, and snatching up tho bowl of drawn (melted) butler, ho dashed it over thoin all, exclaiming, " Ego bnptiao vas." (I bnnlue you all,) An Honest Boy. A younir lad named Gro. V. Armitagc found on the street a check nn a bnnking house in this city, calling for upwards of utieeu iiiinureu uuiiars. -i no ooy immediately sought out, first tho endorser and afterwards the owner of the check, and was rewarded liberally by the latter for his honesty. The owner of tha draft was our fellow QitUen, John O'FaUon, Ew. Who b the Honorable Member! A writer in the San Francisco Golden Era, gives the history of a certain wooden building, near the corner of Washington and Stockton streets, built In 1849, and makes the following startling developments about its former proprietor:As we before said, the individual who built that house was by profession a gambler, by the name of H . His father was a member of the Massachusetts Legislature for many years, and in 1846 removed to Natchez, at the request of a number of relatives who resided near that city. At this tune young II was eighteen vears of age, and an only child. Here, keeeping the company of the reckless and dissipated charac ters ior wnicn JNatcuez was at that time notorious, he plunged into every species of vice, and soon became irrevocably wedded to gaming. llis lather, upon learning the danger which threatened him iu the city, sent him to live with an uncle, who resided a few miles in the country, thnt he might not be subject to the temptations that surrounded him in the city, hoping by so doing to wean him from the life of dissi pation and vice into which he was fast verging. He remained in his uncle's family, where he was treated with the affection of a son for six months, when dishonoring his cousin, the only daughter of his uncle, he left for New Orleans, and iu six months from the time he landed there, he was a confirmed gambler. Ilis cousin Lucy, whom he had so deeply wronged, shortly after became a mother, which was a severe blow to her parents, as well as the father of young H . The child did not live, however, and Lucy unable to remain louger iu the presence of her parents, whom she had rendered forever heartbroken, at the desire of young II , left the home of her childhood, and joined him in New Orleans. Here they remained until the Spring of 1849, by which time H had become a proficient nt gambling. He now concluded to try his fortune in California, and after much persuasion on the part of Lucy, he at length assented to her accompanying him. They arrived at San Francisco in May of that year, and turning his attention to his profession, we unu young ii , at the end or three months, with means sufficient to build the house which we have mentioned. Into this house he removed Lucy, where for some time they lived together, with as much happiness as their social condition would admit. But fortune, which had thus far been favorable, changing, he lost his monev more rnpiuiy man ne nau won it ; and by degrees he lost every dollar, his house at length being taken to pay a gambling debt. He became desperate and began to nbuse and ill-treat his already wretched cousin and mistress, not knowing on whom else to vent his rage in his misfortunes ; and in a drunken hour he offered to sell her for a small sum of readv cash to a gambling companion. Agninst such an act she at first pleaded with tearful eyes ; but finding that unavailing, she at length indignantly refused, whereupon he struck her to the floor with a stick of wood, where he left her for dead ; then locking the door, he fled to the mines. The blow did not kill her, and she recovered, finding herself without money, without friends, and without a home. Lucy is now living on Washington street, leading a life of infamy, forced upon her by the villany of a "relative. The rose of health and happiness has faded from her cheek, not a ray of hope beams iu her eye, and sickening despair sits upon that face which once bloomed with Joyful innocence. ,u, And where is hcv destroyer I We will toll yvl2 Finding that gambling did not pay, he turned his attention to politics, and it now a member of the California Legislature. The nbove is not fancy, but a true sketch, as we stand ready to prove. Markyinq the Peace. At the last dates from Utah, Walker, the Indian chief, was continuing his depredations upon emigrants and the Mormon settlements. The subject being before one of the conference meetings of the Mormons, Elder Smith intimated that he could settle the difficulties with tbe Indians, provided some one of the sisters hod a taste for wigwam life. He said : " I know men are careless, women are careless ; and if there Is not greater care taken, women will be carried away prisoners, and their ' children will be murdered if they wander off carelessly and without protection. I tell you, in a country like this, where women are scarce and hard to get, we have great need to take care of them. Walker himself has teased me for a white wife ; and if any of tho sisters will marry him, I believe I can close the war forthwith. I am certain that unless men can take better care of their women, Walker may supply himself on a liberal scale, and without closinir the war either. In conclusion, I will say, if any lady wishes to be Mrs. Walker, if she will report herself to me, I will agree to negotiate the match." Matrimonial. The fact is revealed by the late British Census (of 1851) that of 290,000 women under the age of 45, in one of the ten divisions, only 170,000 were wives the 120,000 remaiu-ing being widows or spinsters ; and from 1841 to 1851, only ten children were born to every 68 women under 45 years. Of G7,C09 households, 41,916 only were families under husbands and wives, 10,854 were under widows or widowers and 14,399 were under spinsters or bachelors. English writers charge these most unpleasantly suggestive facts to the restrictions on food and commerce that have existed. With their removal it is presumed that a new order of things has been commenced ; and they point to the returns for tho last two or three years to evidence the assertions that the number of marriages now increases every quarter. Rjlse Pahsxips. The parsnip can be raised much more easily than the carrot, and is quite equal to it for feeding horses, cattle or swine. It has advantages over some other crops, by its hardness to endure our most severe winters. A deep, ricle, aud rather moist soil is preferable, but they succeed well in good dry soil. We have grown them iu marsh muck over two feet long and proportionately large. They may be sown late iu the fall or very early In the spring. Never sow them when the soil is dry and hot; it is better to wait for rnin. Michigan Farmer. There is being exhibited in our city, a negro woman, who is turning white. She is of the same complexion ns any white person, with the exception of a black spot on the end of her nose, and a few small spots on her knuckles. There is no doubt but she is a genuine negro: she says any way she is of the pure blood. She ia seventy-five vears old, and was raised by John Randolph, in Charlotte County, Virginia. Her home is in St. Louis, where slio is well known. Chicago Press. 'An artist of Sheffield, England," has discovered that soap is an excellent substitute for wood in engraving. A drawing may be executed with a hard point on a smooth piece of soap, almost as readily, as freely, and iu as short a time, as an ordinary drawing with a lead pencil. Every touch tints produced is clear, sharp, and well defined. When the drawing is finished, a cast may be taken from the surface in plaster ; or, better still, by prossiug the soap firmly Into heated gutta-percha. In gutta-percha soveral impressions may bo taken without injuring the soap, go as to admit of " proofs " being taken, and corrections made a very valuable and practical quality in soap. " No one's Exemy bdt his Ows." " No one's enemy but his own " happens generally to be tho enemy of everybody with whom he is in relation. " No one's enemy but his own " runs rapidly through his means, calls in a friendly way on his friends for bonds, bail and security, Involves his nearest kin, leaves his wife a beg-gar, quarters his orphans upon the public, and, after having enjoyed himself to his last guinea, entails a life of dependency on bis progeny, and dies in the odor of thnt ill understood reputation of harmless folly, which is more injurious to so- cioty than some positive crimes.
